The statement also promises that the University will “continue to review and update its policies toward ensuring that every student — accuser and accused, including those like Paul who are found not responsible — is treated respectfully and as a full member of the Columbia community.” Nungesser’s lawyer who frequently handles cases pertaining to Title IX, Andrew Miltenberg, also released a statement, saying that this settlement “gives Paul a chance to go on with his life and recover from the false accusation against him. We hope that the resolution of the case also ensures that no student will ever have to endure what Paul went through after he was exonerated.”
